Netflix just announced a September 18, 2025 premiere date for the limited series Black Rabbit, set in New York City and starring Jude Law (The Order) and Jason Bateman (Ozark). The premiere date announcement was accompanied by the first batch of photos from the eight-episode series.
Bateman directs the first two episodes and serves as an executive producer along with Jude Law. The cast includes Cleopatra Coleman, Amaka Okafor, Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù, Troy Kotsur, Abbey Lee, Chris Coy, Dagmara Dominczyk, Odessa Young, and Robin De Jesus. Amir Malaklou, Don Harvey, Forrest Weber, Francis Benhamou, Gus Birney, John Ales, and Steve Witting fill out the ensemble.
“Set against the backdrop of New York City’s high-pressure nightlife scene, Black Rabbit centers on two brothers who are pushed to the brink by their duty to family and their pursuit of success. Jake Friedken (Law) is the charismatic owner of Black Rabbit, a restaurant and VIP lounge, poised to become the hottest spot in New York,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “But when his brother, Vince (Bateman), returns to the business unexpectedly, trouble soon follows; opening the door to old traumas and new dangers that threaten to bring down everything they’ve built. Black Rabbit is a propulsive thrill ride and character examination about the way an unbreakable bond between two brothers can shatter their world and everything in its orbit.”

Commenting on the series in an interview with Netflix’s Tudum, Bateman said, “It’s really about these brothers who love each other but don’t match—one’s a screw-up, and the other is much more buttoned up. Everybody can relate to that. Everybody’s either got a sibling or a friendship where you love being with one another, but it’s kind of dangerous, where that person usually gets you in trouble, but they’re really exciting to be around.”
Zach Baylin and Kate Susman created the series and executive produce along with Michael Costigan, Roxie Rodriguez, Ben Jackson, Brian Kavanaugh-Jones, Andrew Hinderaker, Zac Frognowski, Justin Levy, David Bernon, and Erica Kay. Directors include Bateman’s Ozark co-star Laura Linney, Ben Semanoff, and Justin Kurzel.
